Is it just me or have Q'soD taken on a slight anorak quality of late? :smile:

They have. I guess the problem is that non-anoraky questions are really easy. As the saying goes 'All questions are easy when you know the answer'

So this is non-anorak related quite specific I guess.

There is an internet meme that margarine was invented to fatten turkeys and was later adopted for human consumptions because it killed all the turkeys. Total **** of course but there's always someone that wants to believe a good (or even a bad conspiracy theory)

So my question is this: For whom was margarine invented?

I think it was made by order of Napolean. The idea being it would be a cheaper alternative to butter to supply the army and peasants.

Which member of the royal family is a member of the magic circle ?

Bonus point if you know the trick they performed.

By elimination, Liz and Phil too busy reigning and staying alive.. Andy, too busy with the ladies, Anne, too busy with the horses, Edward - could be, does theatrical stuff. William, too busy with Kate and who could blame him. The ginger one, too busy with some American bird.

But I'd say Charles and his trick was making a woman disappear, namely Diana.

I would agree with Charles, he seems to have had plenty spare time to practice ;)
